The perfect cat litter?

Currently, I'm using clumping litter which has better odour control, as the SO can't tahan litter box odour nor does he like the smell of pine. The regular pine pellets (which I'd used previously) is environmentally-friendly and safer for the cats, but it doesn't controlling odour well, and is actually more troublesome to remove on a daily basis.

It seems that Feline Pine has a new clumping and scoopable pine-based product which some testers have said does absorb odour well.

Hmm...has anyone seen it in the stores, or tried it yet? I may want to try it.

I have no problem with breeder's celect (paper) for 3 cats; no smell and much less debris carried by the paws. It is also easy to flush down the toilet. Pine can clog if too much is disposed at one time.

My colleague had used Breeders Select but felt there was still some odour.

The litter box is placed at the kitchen where the windows are closed when we're at work, so the smell won't be able to dissipate in that enclosed area. Odour control is important or else, I won't be allowed to keep a cat at home! :PP

"Down side: Stench of pee is strong within the box for crystals are not meant to be scooped yet on first use. The floor, though not dusty, is littered with tiny crystal balls that needed to be swept up carefully and diligently. Pee smell can gradually be detected in the room after 3 or 4 days of use."
